Catalytic Kinetic Resolution by Enantioselective Aromatization: Conversion of Racemic Intermediates of the Barton-Zard Reaction into Enantioenriched 3-Arylpyrroles

Qian Wang, Jieping Zhu, Sheng-Cai Zheng

Racemic 3,4-dihydro-2H-pyrroles, hypothetical intermediates of the Barton–Zard reaction, were synthesized in a highly diastereoselective manner and fully characterized for the first time. Kinetic resolution of the dihydropyrroles with a quinine-derived thi ...

From isonitrile to nitrile via ketenimine intermediate: Palladium-catalyzed 1,1-carbocyanation of ally carbonate by alpha-isocyanoacetate

Qian Wang, Jieping Zhu, Guanyinsheng Qiu, Charlotte Marie Sornay, Sheng-Cai Zheng, David Savary

A palladium-catalyzed 1,1-carbocyanation of allyl carbonate by alpha-quaternary alpha-isocyanoacetate was developed. Formation of ketenimine followed by homolysis of the C-N bond and recombination of the resulting caged radical pair was proposed to account ...
